About this product

Product Information

"Get the Money!" was Ted Berrigan's mantra for the paid writing gigs he took on its support of his career as a poet. This long-awaited collection of his essential prose draws upon the many essays, reviews, introductions, and other texts he produced for hire, as well as material from his journals, travelouges, and assorted, unclassifiable creative texts. Documenting his innovative poetics and techniques, as well as the creative milieu of poets-centered around New York's Poetry Project-for whom he served as both nurturer and catalyst, Get the Money! provides a view into the development of Berrigan's aesthetics in real time, capturing the heady excitement of the era from the '60s through his untimely death in 1983. An essential volume for the study of post-war American poetry. Book jacket.

Reviews
"Ted Berrigan wrote wonderful poems and experimented brilliantly with various prose forms and strategies. Full of surprises, Get the Money! Collected Prose (1961-1983) will be indispensable to students of Berrigan and the New York School."-- David Lehman, series editor, The Best American Poetry, "Ted Berrigan wrote wonderful poems and experimented brilliantly with various prose forms and strategies. Full of surprises, Get the Money! Collected Prose (1961-1983) will be indispensable to students of Berrigan and the New York School."-- David Lehman, series editor, The Best American Poetry "What a gift to have "Get the Money - collected prose (1961-1983)" by Ted Berrigan, just new from City Lights Books. Here we have a large collection of Berrigan's journals, reviews, essays, poems and more! What a pleasure to drop into the whirlwind of creative energy that is Ted's language, Ted's world, at the center of the New York City poetry and art worlds of the 1960s . Grab a pepsi, maybe some desoxyn, and enjoy the ride with Ted and his friends! Meet up with Frank O'Hara, John Ashbery, Ron Padgett, Joe Brainard, Bernadette Mayer, Alice Notley and many more - and remember, as Ted reminds us, "Don't forget to love me." With this book, we won't forget."-- Gary Lawless , Owner, Gulf of Maine Bookstore "This, ultimately, is the composite picture that emerges of Berrigan: a maker of poems who listens honestly to his own best work and then continuously listens for the sound of the next kind of poem for as long as the poems will have him." --Jordan Davis, The Poetry Foundation, "Ted Berrigan wrote wonderful poems and experimented brilliantly with various prose forms and strategies. Full of surprises, Get the Money! Collected Prose (1961-1983) will be indispensable to students of Berrigan and the New York School."-- David Lehman, series editor, The Best American Poetry "What a gift to have "Get the Money - collected prose (1961-1983)" by Ted Berrigan, just new from City Lights Books.

With this book, we won't forget."-- Gary Lawless , Owner, Gulf of Maine Bookstore, Advance Praise for Get the Money!: "Ted Berrigan was legendary on the streets of the Lower East Side, and for his editing of "C" Magazine. I always appreciated his devotion and passion about OUR Time. There had never been anything quite like it. We were all entangled! Ted explores this kind of energy in his personal story and writing. He tracks a bunch of artist/poets growing with deliberation in radically changing the Kulchur. Get the Money! captures the esprit de corps of the particular community close to Ted's door on St Mark's Place. This book of prose with its nimble lift, tinged with intimacy, wit, and perception is a welcome addition to the second gen NY School canon. Ted often went hungry but could make a few dollars with the short reviews. One walks the rounds with Ted on his 'beat': Love, poetry, gossip, art. Telling it like it is. Strolling into artist studios, galleries, poets' modest digs, and into our hearts."-- Anne Waldman , author of Trickster Feminism "I copied so many of my favorite passages from this splendid collection I almost reproduced the whole book. Then I thought, hey, why don't I just buy a hundred copies of the book when it's published and give it to a hundred people who love Ted Berrigan and then they can buy a hundred copies to give to their friends? I am immensely grateful to Alice Notley, Edmund and Anselm Berrigan, and Nick Sturm for this intimate look. Ted was my mentor, my teacher of America and its poetry, and I often quote him. He was an oral genius and I have regretted not writing down everything he said to me. Now I have this collection of journals, critical writing on art, aphorisms, and correspondence. It makes for a grand portrait of the poet who charmed my whole generation. Ted Berrigan is alive in this book in ways that no one could guess."-- Andrei Codrescu , author of Too Late for Nightmares "It's always a significant occasion when we have an edition of a poets prose. Get the Money! offers us an important window into Ted Berrigan's laboratory, his no bullshit attitude, his class awareness, his gorgeous sentimentality, and his disarming anarchic humor. This book is what anyone could hope it would be: funny, tender, brilliant, intimate, original, alive."-- Peter Gizzi , author of Now It's Dark "Ted Berrigan's voice has always been instantly familiar to me so Get the Money! feels less like a reading experience and more like taking a long walk with my favorite poet, then buying him a drink someplace and letting him talk. The pieces collected here offer a superhuman range of formal invention. Highlights include intimate, confiding journals from both the sixties and seventies, The infamous 'interview' with John Cage, two pieces on the portraiture of Alice Neel, a notice on the death of Frank O'Hara, a history of Berrigan's own "C" magazine, Naropa workshop notes, the Arrival Report, and a letter written to Joanne Kyger on her birthday in 1971. There is poetry included as well: haiku translations from Basho and several book reviews split into verse. Even with such variety Get the Money! somehow maintains the emotional dimension of a memoir, perhaps because Berrigan remains consistently revealing throughout. His prose is often loose and lyrical, hovering somewhere between blogging, letter writing, texting, and transcription. His deadpan bravura and sudden dismissiveness are consistently hilarious. Decades after his death Berrigan remains way ahead of his time. I think Robert Creeley said it best, 'The Bell rings / Ted is ready'."-- Cedar Sigo , author of All This Time
